But did he have any bruising, scratches, bleeding? Also, with all this crashing noise, didn't any neighbors hear anything?; Reply to this comment

Obviously froma little google search I did, I found that HYPOXIA is the #2 cause of PEA while OD is the #7 cause.... How dare this medical examiner exclude smothering from the causes of PEA??!!! and they just believed him.

"Hypoxia secondary to respiratory failure is probably the most common cause of PEA, with respiratory insufficiency accompanying 40-50% of PEA cases. Situations that cause sudden changes in preload, afterload, or contractility often result in PEA."; Reply to this comment

He made sure she was dead before he called 911, he said she had stopped breathing for about 5-10 minutes before he called. He doesn't seem like an honest man to me, the way he talks is too fast, and dishonest.; Reply to this comment

by Numeroundici January 29, 2013 8:41 AM EST: Strange that she dies on the exact night she sends these furious text messages, isn't it? Everybody talks about the scratches, but what about the bruises?? In the face?? And if not smothered, what did she die from? Overdose? But they said they found a high level, not a deadly level of drugs. Sorry man, this looks like a homicide to me, with the guy answering the business phone calls, while his spouse-to-be was dying in his arms. Odd. Would you?; Reply to this comment


by EM1970 January 29, 2013 7:41 AM EST: I don't know... I don't think anyone would be capable of harming themselves the way she did. TOO MUCH INJURY! I just find it weird that she never had any self inflicted wounds before she met him, and she partied like that all the time. Not buying it, he's a murder.; Reply to this comment


by curiosity1961 January 20, 2013 11:59 PM EST: A lot of heavy drugs do make people act in a rage where they dont even know what they are doing to themselves, she probably did this with a coathanger. Ive seen a patient bite his own fingers off and not be aware of it until coming down off the drug.; Reply to this comment


by bahopuwetmo January 19, 2013 9:55 AM EST: this case makes me sick.
the prosecution dropped the ball.
the jurors are ignorant.

the entire case was explained perfectly by the detective in about 45 seconds. scumbag boyfriend tortured the girl and beat her to death.; Reply to this comment


by pogomcl December 31, 2012 4:03 PM EST: he guy's story is too inconsistent...but spector is in prison and this guy is free. that's nutty. the drug level in her body could also be forced. he could have loaded her and then fought to subdue her, but his story is more fishy than the carp czechs sell at christmas and stinks worse.; Reply to this comment
